StandardAero acquired Signature Aviation’s Engine Repair (ERO) and Overhaul business last year, growing the combined companies’ significant helicopter MRO capabilities to better serve customers with expanded offerings.
The addition of ERO immediately expanded StandardAero’s existing capabilities for providing MRO services for M250, RR300, PT6T, T700 and CT7 helicopter engines and added new OEM licenses for CTS800 engines and PW200 engines as new platforms to its MRO portfolio, while also expanding parts distribution channels and mobile field services for customers worldwide.
The acquisition also included Signature Aviation’s helicopter MRO facilities in Dallas, Portsmouth UK and Broomfield Colorado, providing StandardAero with increased capacity for engine MRO, accessories and component piece part repairs.
StandardAero’s helicopters team foresees a multitude of benefits for current and future customers including enhanced operational efficiency, better turn times, expanded engineering expertise, expanded global and field service presence and more global aftermarket support network and services.
